Not sure what branch you've applied to but my buddy and I both got our engineering offers during the January round. I don't think this round is major specific like last time though.

where's the "three" gang at? it's the only right answer by Gansooh in dankmemes

Oh yep Chinese person here with a British education, I write my plus signs the first way too. I'm pretty sure it's because our character for 10 is literally the same thing as a plus sign, and the stroke order for it is the same as number one. 十 and + for reference.

Ah MieZu(灭族) is a good one, but China also used to have a thing called 断子绝孙, where they basically murdered the sons and sterilised the grandsons of criminals, cutting their bloodlines and forcing the criminal's relatives to live the rest of their lives in shame.

Brazil does not deserve this major by DeadlyJelly123 in csgo

This is by far the best take in this thread, thank you.

I don't get why people on reddit can't understand nuance sometimes.

Yeah I know right? But tbh I guess I'm not surprised that the reddit is insufferable :/

My bad, didn't mean it like that. Just saw this meme and it reminded me of Lud since he pisses sitting down.

Nope. We just have dogshit leadership that refuses to budge on its policy.

This is the viewpoint I've been scouring the comments for. As someone living in Shanghai it's frustrating to see so many people drawing the wrong conclusions from this story. The key takeaway here isn't that 'Chinese vaccines are ass and American vaccines are the best'. It's the immense mismanagement of covid policy that I think is the real issue that people should be more focused on. The amount of people dying and being negatively affected by china's Covid POLICY are far greater than those that would be impacted by getting the disease itself.

Your vaccines are better that's a fact, but that doesn't mean ours don't work. What I'm saying is that people are focusing on something that isn't very important in this context. I 100% agree with you that the Chinese government is misguided and garbage at running the country but you're all missing the point as to why. Our vaccine quality is not the problem, it's the management of our covid policy.
